I might have found the hook that gets me paying attention to epic destinies. Before quitting far too late last night, I spent my 4 points in fatesinger that we stacked up during our run. I had no real idea what I was doing and I didn't even figure out what questions to ask before the rest of the group bailed for the night other than the twist.

Phuury can now play a lute while in lich form.

I'm not sure why that excites me and I doubt his inspire courage (and dirge) will have any real value, but dammit it's a lich playing guitar. Bring on the epics!
